got about half of the new additions done. these aren't finalized yet. we had some odd wind, if you think any of these are drastically off feel free to disagree and we'll give em some more tries. a handful of the discs were super inconsistent from run to run.

the biggest surprise was how stable the super stingray. these discs still had factory flashing but when i told dan to flip em over because i wanted to see how much they would turn at super high power they just went 425' while barely turning at all. the king cobra was the most inconsistent from this batch... the 171g we had was really stable, the 180g was super flippy. the rating we gave it was an average.

the two lycans we had differed slightly, but not enough to swing it more than 0.5 in any value. dan had one throw that went about 385' that turned 2' left to right and faded back about 3' to finish 1' left of center.

Also, the next chart update will have the blizzard discs rated separately.

I don't have my sheet here so this is off memory:

Wraith 5.5/-1.5/3/4Katana 5.5/-2/3/4Destroyer 5.5/-1/3.5/5Boss 5.5/-2/3/5 (it shocked me that this got so much flippier while the destroyer stayed the same but with a lower pwr)Roadrunner 5/-2/+1/2Ape 5/0/4/5

I don't remember what i wrote down for the teedevil. the krait, dd2, etc. got cut short due to rain.

I'm shocked you found ones like that too. The majority of the Blizzard Bosses I've seen have been very close to the Champ and dyed Champ Bosses I've tried. It's actually been harder to find a Blizzard Destroyer that doesn't like to turn than a Blizzard Boss.

Hypothetically speaking, shouldn't the ratings for blizzard be the same as the ratings for champion? Or is it a function of having the rim weight to total disc weight ratio decreased for the blizzard that would have a marked difference in flight characteristics when compared to its champ counterpart?

It's a function of the discs not molding up with the exact same shape in different plastics and weights, mostly. The weight distribution affects it a bit, but it's not really all that drastic, as JHern often explains. The Blizzard gets the light discs much closer to the shape of the normal runs than any plastic before it though, the PLH can be almost identical between a 175 Champ Boss and a 139 Blizzard Boss, and the stability likewise.

I had surmised from my studies here and fondling in store is that the MD2 has the stingray wing and a new top and a spacer. from the photos above it appears that they just took the old stingray mold and added the spacer from the MD2. I could be wrong and usually am.
